SO I was right! The Silk Brocade that I picked out as the perfect pink/salmon/peach color for the small guest bedroom was pale yellow (read strange) green. I questioned the painter about it & he said something along the lines of "nope that's the color, it's yellow". When I asked told him that I would pick up more paint since I wanted the room a pinkish-tan, he said "are you serious? PINK in a bedroom". And wouldn't you know it, I gave in. So the room has a full coat of pale yellow with a strange green tint.
THEN TODAY, the painter left me a frantic message. "Hi Melissa, this is Jim the painter. When I opened the second can of Silk Brocade it was the strange dark tan/pink color. The labels on both cans say SILK BROCADE, but the color codes are different. It's not the green, sorry I mean yellow that you have for the first coat."
Uh huh....So at least I know my color vision isn't that far off. And I know that I was right, the room does have a strange green glow. I started to get used to having a pale yellow room, minus the green glow. So we're on to a third color. A true Pale Yellow called Cherokee Rose. We'll see what happens.
Any suggestion for where to use the tan/pink/salmon gallon. Right now thinking either a closet (surprise our guest) or the laundry room.
